After reading this report, it’s not clear to me what the federal government ought to have done or should’ve done differently. Not regulate food labeling at all? Or not regulate food labeling if less than 1% of the population is impacted by an issue? Remove prior food labeling laws for other allergens? Provide incentives to prevent companies from simplifying their processes and keeping costs lower (especially during a time of high inflation and rising interest rates)? Punish companies that are bypassing the spirit of the law and compel them to create and maintain facilities and processes to prevent cross contamination (and make products that don’t have allergens)?
